Introduction: Intended Audience

Intended Audience

This document covers extending the PHP code for JShop Server by the use of hooks and functionality provided by the system. It is intended to be read by developers looking to extend some of the functionality of the system and requires good PHP knowledge and general programming experience. It is important to note that the extension facilities provided by JShop Server do not guarantee that your code is secure and we cannot provide support for your own custom additions to the system.

 

Where ever possible we recommend using the methods included in this document, in lieu of the plug-in architecture which we are currently developing, as the changes made in line with this document will not be lost when upgrades are applied to JShop Server. However, we cannot guarantee that changes in newer versions of JShop Server will not affect any code you have written and it is your responsibility to ensure compatibility with later versions as they are released.
